Calcium intake

Long term calcium deficiency during adolescence leads to poor bone mineral accrual in and early onset of osteoporosis. Information on calcium intake was obtained by 24hour recall method for three days. BMD of the whole body was measured by using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).

In the presented research, we compared the in vitro protective effects of α-tocopherol and α-tocotrienol. In this context, we formed an in vitro neurodegeneration model with primary isolated neurons and measured α-tocopherol’s and α-tocotrienol’s protective effects. As a result, α-tocopherol and α-tocotrienol prevent the degeneration of neurons. Moreover, α-tocopherol and α-tocotrienol regulated the neuron’s calcium channels mechanism by decreasing the expression of the calcium channel alpha 1C subunit.

Hypocalcemia has detrimental effects on health and performance of dairy cows. As hypocalcemic cows show reduced feed intake, we hypothesized that cows with reduced combined rumination and eating time (CRET) may benefit from Ca supplementation.

Health beneficial effect of pomegranate is mainly due to its confirmed high antioxidant capacity and polyphenolic content. In recent years, experimental and clinical studies have shown that pomegranate intake lowers blood pressure. Potassium and other minerals such as calcium and magnesium may be responsible for this property. In this study, a rapid, economic, reliable, and applicable capillary electrophoresis method was proposed with contactless conductivity detection for the quantitative determination of six cations in different pomegranate juices.

High intake of dietary calcium has been thought to be a protective factor against colorectal cancer. To explore the dose-response relationship in the associations between dietary calcium intake and colorectal cancer risk by cancer location, we conducted a case-control study among Korean population, whose dietary calcium intake levels are relatively low.

African Americans have disproportionately higher burden of prostate cancer compared to European Americans. However, the cause of prostate cancer disparities is still unclear. Several roles have been proposed for calcium and vitamin D in prostate cancer pathogenesis and progression, but epidemiologic studies have been conducted mainly in European descent populations.

Nutritional status of girl students is of more importance as they are future mothers and the food choices they make had a major effect on their health. The main aim of the study was to assess the direct and indirect factors affecting the nutritional status of girls residing in hostel of GBPUA&T, Pantnagar, and Uttarakhand which include the assessment of dietary intake using 24 hour recall method, anthropometric measurements, assessment of food habits, knowledge, attitude and practice. For the purpose 100 girls from university hostel were selected.

The ameliorative effects of DL- methionine and vitamin C against chronic lead toxicity in guinea pigs were studied and a comparison was done between the two ameliorating agents against adverse effects of 20 ppm lead. 32 weaned guinea pigs were divided into four groups of 8 animals under RBD and group G1 was fed on basal diet, G2 basal diet plus 20ppm lead, G3 basal diet plus 20 ppm lead plus 20 ppm DL-methionine and the G4 basal diet plus 20 ppm lead plus 500 ppm vitamin C for 90 days.

Diet has a very prominent role in management of renal patients. Specific nutrients particularly proteins, carbohydrate, sodium, potassium, calcium and phosphorus intake is quite detrimental. Patients on Keto- Analogues have to be very careful regarding their protein restrictions similarly during oedema fluid and sodium restrictions need to be analysed. Therefore role of food and diet has now been kept on fore fronts in various therapeutic approaches.

Assessing nutrient status of animals. After registration, the animal’s daily feed intake, daily milk yield and milk fat percent are recorded. In addition, the animal’s body weight is also record- ed. Based on milk yield, milk fat percent, body weight and the pregnancy status, the animal’s nutrient requirement is computed by the software. Considering the prevailing feeding practices (feed intake), consumption of nutrients, e.g. energy (TDN; total digestible nutrients), protein, calcium and phosphorus is assessed.

This book will change the way you think about bone density and osteoporosis. The weakening of bones is often viewed as a calcium defi ciency, when actually it’s an imbalance between calcium intake and excretion. As nutrition professor Amy Joy Lanou, Ph.D., and noted medical journalist Michael Castleman eloquently reveal, diets rich in animal protein, including meat and dairy, add acid to the blood. This acid accelerates osteoporosis by depleting bones of calcium, phosphorus, and sodium.

Vegetarians of all types can achieve recommended nutrient intakes through careful selection of foods. These individuals should give special attention to their intakes of protein, iron, and vitamin B12, as well as calcium and vitamin D if avoiding milk products. In addition, vegetarians could select only nuts, seeds, and legumes from the meat and beans group, or they could include eggs if so desired. At the 2,000­calorie level, they could choose about 1.5 ounces of nuts and  2 /3 cup legumes instead of 5.5 ounces of meat, poultry, and/or fish.

A clustering of the disease among close relatives has also been shown, although there is no consensus on which inheritable genetic defects are involved. In spite of extensive research, reliable findings on risk factors relating to lifestyle, diet or the environment remain elusive. Possible lifestyle risk factors are high intakes of α-linolenic acid (a polyunsaturated fatty acid in vegetables and dairy products) and calcium.
